How many times have you read the same message or seen the same image in various media? Social media is slowly becoming more of a botheration than a source of information or entertainment. Unregulated or content posted without verification and self censor is becoming threat even to the security of individuals and society.
I wonder how a company like WatsApp could be making money without even displaying any advertisement. By selling the data about people and their behaviour? Quite possible. Just yesterday Home Minister mentioned about creation of a new agency to monitor the cyber content. There is an organisation (NTRO), already functioning in this domain, which could have been suitably enabled. It is typical of our method of governance that we keep creating new setups.
The 'Digital Junk' is ever-increasing. It is an art to keep the digital-self clean and clear of clutter.
